Orpheus v1.0.0

Initial public release of Orpheus, a cross-platform YouTube Music client built with Compose Multiplatform, Liquid Glass aesthetics, and a native libmpv desktop audio backend.

What's New

Interface and Experience

  • Liquid Glass Design System: Translucent surfaces with continuous-curve geometry and dynamic album-art atmosphere across player, navigation, and modals.
  • Redesigned Home Screen: Local personalization, Recently Played layout prioritized on desktop, custom window titlebar refinement, and a first-launch onboarding tour.
  • Desktop Mini Player: Redesigned compact player aligned with the mobile Now Playing widget layout and live synchronized lyrics.
  • Android Home Widgets: Added compact Now Playing, 4x1 turntable, 5x2 Now Playing with 3-line live lyrics, and 5x2 Playlists widgets.

Fixes and Performance

  • Stripped inline RichSync timestamp tags (<mm:ss.xx>) from synced lyric displays on both Desktop Mini Player and Android widgets.
  • Optimized Liquid Glass rendering and Compose list scroll performance across Android and Desktop.
  • Configured JVM heap limits (-Xmx512m) and hardware-accelerated Skiko rendering per desktop OS.
  • Pointed in-app release checks and download links to alifconstantine/orpheus-release.
